It would sure help if these idiots would read a little more, they don’t seem to get it that there is no communism just like there isn’t a group of ANTIFA folks running around slashing the reflecting pool 😂

ANTI-AMERICAN CRIMINAL FASCIST LYING PUTIN OWNED TRAITOR SCUMBAG TRUMP, has been using NAZI fear/hate-mongering, Big Lie social division tactics for a decade+. TrumPutin’s slanderous Hitler style fascist fear, hate, slander rallies have divided USA more than any time since the Civil War. F#CK TRUMP!

DON’T BLAME THE PRESS - who’ve good reason to maintain the century old tradition of Correspondents’ Dinner. Even during the rise of Putin/Trump’s Russian sponsored Fascist Authoritarianism, the Press still needs “access to power”, to ever be able to report anything at all. Blame Putin puppet Trump!

F*ck Atlantic Magazine & other "liberal rags" for allowing GOP, Proj2025 & trump to rename & define support of Middle class priorities. We'd never have FDR, New Deal, Middle Class, SS, Medicare & Medicaid if we called progressive policies "communism!" How absurd.

People are being beaten and murdered in public because they’re not white enough or speak a different language. America has over 100k people in concentration camps under horrific conditions with thousands of credible reports of rape, murder, and neglect. But yea, let’s worry about imaginary stuff.

Yeah and the "communism" lie has no correlation to any part of reality. A rotting child rapist in late stage dementia recalled his mentor Roy Cohn and thought a "red scare" might help him survive. His dutiful propagandists Fox News and Nazi bitch Bari Weiss got right on board.

This is not an accident, because fascism and anticommunism are the same thing. Fascism is just the form all anticommunism takes when the perceived danger of communist revolution reaches the necessary point.

Not all anticommunists are fascists, mind you; but all anticommunists must either become fascists or give up their anticommunism as the point of no return looms closer. There is no third option.

Communism's toll dwarfs fascism's by a factor of 4-10x, even adjusting for population and duration. Per some analyses, communist regimes killed more non-combatants than the Holocaust + other major 20th-century atrocities combined.

Best description of fascism I heard is that it is the male equivalent of socialism. Another good one: "The natural order of things'. Anyway, people tend not to flee fascism, as opposed to communism. That makes communism the ultimate evil.

What is really happening here is that Democrats fear people that are almost identical to them, with minor differences: The narcissm of small differences. They are not worried about blacks or muslims: that's way out of their league. They are worried about Trump who was Democrat most of his life.

Can some billionaire step up and buy time on every network right before the midterms for a massive counter offensive to this fauxking mania we’re suffering through…

To repeat the obvious, no country ever “slips into” Communism. Communism comes about through violent revolution as an extreme response to massive inequality. The way to avoid this disaster is to have less inequality. This concludes my TED talk.

Yes. Of course there ARE just nasty dictators who, sadly, have children. It was my dad who said this. I used that parenting style, as well. I'm 3/3 in raising happy little taxpayers. Although they're pretty angry about what's become of our nation. May the USA have the guts & grit 2 repair itself

First of all democratic socialist is NEITHER communism nor pure socialism. Hence the word “democratic” The USA isn’t walking toward communism, but we ARE practically in fascism, which is basically what present functioning communist countries really are!! Only the top gets rich either way!

The Democrats who crossed over were Reps. Henry Cuellar of Texas, Don Davis of North Carolina, Jared Golden of Maine, Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, Adam Gray of California, and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington. Independent Rep. Kevin Kiley of California.

Old tactic…. Old old tactic. Fascist deflection - screaming ‘communism!’ We will NEVER be inclined to go for communism and they fucking know it. They target ignorance- of which there is a LOT here….… goddamned fascism nearly destroyed the world and killed millions. Fascism, now corporate = death.

So they are doing the cult hive mind stuff GOP is using COMMUNISM as their new boogeyman trigger word like they did with They're eating the cats They're eating the dogs They're eating the pets People have forgotten 'McCarthyism' of 75 years ago - it was all bogus too

They've always had it in their bag of tricks, and pull it out from time to time Now they are putting it on center stage with an extra spotlight Chanting it like a mantra Notice uptick in use of COMMUNISM in the past few weeks Were you hearing it a year ago? Mamdani scared them

The ironic thing is that many of the most solid democracies rely on state media to ensure a free press. They are independent and controlled by an independent watchdog. They are not run by the government, but funded by it, so they don't have to rely on income from cooperations.

Trump doesn't say "slipping into Communism", he says we've long been there. You're just as bad as those reporters you're criticizing, not telling Trump and every Republican: prove how we already have the Communism you claim is rampant in the U.S. That's why I just muted you. Learn and improve.

Lack of history education. Both formal big-C Communism and formal big-F Fascism are bad. Both are easy enablers of single-ruler governments. Yeah, yeah, they may claim to have something like Congress but they basically have a one-party system with one guy at the top holding the most power.

Dictator, Tyrant, Leader, Autocrat. All shorter and more 'visible' words than "Authoritarian." No leader has ever proudly said "I am an Authoritarian!!" But Dictator, Tyrant, Leader, even Autocrat, King, Emperor, Czar...yes. Short, concrete words that everyone can give an example of.

One person on the top rung, with the power to yea/nay every decision. One person, one party, all "aligned" as the Project 2025 people put it, into cookie-cutter shapes, all subordinate to the guy on top.

Name names. And I’ll bet Bill Maher is top of the list. Meanwhile, They Might Be Giants notes that the Communists have the music (while the Fascists have the outfits)…

Dude: I suggest we FIGHT. Quickly, and hard! In re: Trump's plan to start posting bullshit in place of Smithsonian history shit, we cover all MAGA bases in REBUTTAL. On MAGA sites. Post corrected posters over bogus ones. Plant little 'articled' here snd there. The modern form of the "full page ad".

We've seen this play before ... pretty soon there will be hearings in Washington by some committee aiming to get to the bottom of the communist conspiracy to take over the country. Dumb asses should look in the mirror and recognize their own projection of fascism resulting in donald the orange turd.

The first order of business when you start fascism, is to compromise the media by which people are basing their votes on. Control that, you can get any result you want. I saw this in high school civics class back in the mid 70s. It's an exploit. And Trump is somebody's pet virus on a leash...

In their philosophy, you repeat lies long enough, they become truth Cause as the generations pass, that understanding is diluted. And it increases the chance of not knowing the history of something. Propaganda 101. Fascism is an 80 year locust. About every 4th generation. When the old folk die off

Yeah. At the correspondent's dinner, they should create an award for the stupidest question asked of an elected politician. My winner would be the reporter asking AOC, if she was worried about Democratic Socialism turning in to full blown communism. Really? If you have a degree, don't tell where!

They’re working on just the right way to balance the story about the regime that’s jumped into fascism (it was no slip!) and is dragging the rest of us along. So they have to concentrate and pick just the right words not to offend.

I think it’s amazing! I know that it sucks when it’s not your guy (facism?)but he is taking care of business like no other and I love it. Still needs to do more on Epstein and Charlie Kirk but other than that I love it.

Trump is a Christofascist White Nationalists and he is a failed businessman who is a corrupt grifter, personally profiting while driving Americans further into debt both personally and nationally. He has recently announced prices on goods Americans buy are going up. Again.

And we are nowhere remotely close to Communism in America. Facts: "The US is widely considered by political scientists to be much closer to an oligarchy & right-wing authoritarian trends than to communism."

"This perspective is driven by systemic economic inequality and the outsized political influence of corporate & ultra-wealthy elites within a capitalist framework, rather than state-owned the-means-of-production or classless social structures defined by communism."

It's like aliens,that fear in the back of everyone's mind & all it needs is someone 2 flip the switch on. There's people who seriously believe there R alien lizards walking around Earth in human bodies. Why would they not believe that there's a whole communist substructure when their leader says so

It's just that the Broligarchs are terrified that voters are ready for a socialist government and Zohran Mamdani is the latest red under the bed booger man that people trust. Where did the voters get the idea that Billionaires suck? I wonder,🤔

I don’t buy that. These ppl all have options. And if this is their fear they have no business being a journalist. They’ve completely forgotten what it means to be a journalist. It’s not to get rich

Who is the media & what is the media for the most part? A bunch of over privileged smug ppl just giving their opinion There is no real journalism happening.

And they even don’t know Trump is already engaging communism since 2025. Some reporters don’t know the meaning of communism at all. They might be MAGA or Zionists! They’re too stupid & hatred toward ordinary Americans.

They’re the official mouthpiece for fascism. Make no bones about it. After given a bullet point cliff notes talking points to parrot off the official narrative, they are programmed to start the brainwashing on the people.

Communist Russia was USA ally in the defeat of Hitlers fascism USA won the Cold War with the Communist regimes economic collapse. Why? Democracy. Capitalism for the People. Not political control by oligarchs - that’s what citizens United has delivered.

Why Trump says “communism” is beyond me! The fall of the USSR happened 36 years ago! Most of the US is too young to remember it! The only communism people today know is China, and it’s full of rich tech and crypto bros!

We aren't "slipping" into fascism. The Christian Nationalists and the people behind Project 2025 have been planning this coup for decades. It's a hostile takeover from within, not some kind of slow transition.

1.What communism are they talking abt?a Govt that gives a hoot as to what's happening to average Amer and want to Do something to make thr lives better. Capitalism is doing such a bang up job 4 those of us who are suffering. Capitalism is 4 DT and his rich friends. They're the ones enjoying DT's

Hopefully, nobody have substances believing the latest lie. By now it’s clear that there were no roving gangs of immigrants stealing & raping. They have to invent something new to scare the old white people. W/o fear and an enemy to blame what chance do they have of winning any election elections?

Democracy gets a stress test. Congress folds. Big Law folds. SCOTUS part of the coup. Big business joins the coup. Major media folds. Establishment Dems fold (affordability!) Judiciary stands up. People at large stand up. Some major Dems stand up. Most major cultural figures stand up. slender reed

🇨🇦 Reporters? More like politicians, and they’re not slipping into fascism, they jumping in, screaming ‘the water’s fine, jump in’!

Imagine following this guy as his brown shirts casually dismiss human rights in a place that was once a bastion of freedom. Now imagine what world historians will say about the Republicans actively destroying our credibility as an allied nation.
